PDF Viewing Archiving 300 URBAN STORM WATER QUALTIY AND EFFECTS UPON RECEIVING WATERS COPYRIGHT @ BY THE NETHERLANDS ORGANIZATION FOR APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH TNO, 1986 PREFACE The progress in the construction of waste water treatment plants, in legislation and in the prevention of water pollution has shifted the proportions of sources of pollutants discharged in surface waters. Increasingly attention is being paid to the role of combined sewer overflows and storm water discharges in water pollution. Historically design and control of sewers and pumping stations has been based on quantitative considerations. Substantial experience on rainfall, on transformations during run-off and transport in sewers and on overflows is available and quantitative descriptions are being developped. Comparatively little is known of the quality aspects and managers and administrators often need answers urgently. Hence in several countries research programmes are being carried out in which the water quality of rainfall, run-off from paved areas in separate and combined sewer systems and in overflows is measured and analysed. Moreover we see an increasing attention for the effects of these discharges upon the receiving waters, not only with respect to the bacteriology and chemistry of water and sediments but including the influence upon the structure and function of ecosystems. The contributions to this Conference clearly illustrate the complexity of the problem to assess the systems behaviour and the variety of techniques used by scientists and technologists to generate appropriate answers. We wish to thank the authors for their contributions and CHO-TNO and the EWPCA for the support given to the organisers of this Conference.

Pratt Dept. of Civil & Structural Eng. G. E. P. Elliott Dept. of Physical Sciences G. A. Fulcher Dept. of Civil & Structural Eng. Trent Polytechnic, Nottingham, UK Abstract Data are presented from field and laboratory studies of water quality and pollutant attachment to sediments in road- side gully pots in a residential catchment. Results of correlation analysis of water quality parameters are presented and the effect of discharge to a separate storm sewer via gully pots are illustrated for two events, one displaying enhanced suspended solids concentration due to resuspension of pot basal deposits, the other showing improved quality of outflow as a result of sedimentation within the gully. The importance of pH variation in deter- mining the exchange of heavy metals from liquor to sediment phases of pollutant transport, and vice versa, is demonstrated. 1 Introduction The paper presents results of a partly completed three year research programme undertaken to investigate the influence of gully pots on the quality of urban storm water discharge from highway surfaces to a separate storm sewer system. Typically in the UK, gullies in residential areas receive storm runoff from some 200m2 highway surface. Below the inlet grating at the highway surface is a gully pot of some 1001 capacity, which provides a water seal to the downstream sewer connection and is intended to trap sediments, prevent- ing their forward transmission through the sewer system. The investigation reported set out to determine in what ways the discharge quality of highway runoff, with its associated sediments and pollutant loads, was affected by passage through the gully pot prior to entering the sewer system. Three aspects were studied in some detail: gully pot liquor and deposited basal sediment quality; storm runoff quality at inflow and outflow from the gully pot; and factors affecting pollutant transfer to and from sediment-associated and disolved phases. The study has been based on three cul-de-sacs in a well-main- tained, residential housing estate at Clifton, Nottingham. The three sub-catchments selected were all similar in land use but had highway slopes which ranged from 0.5 to 5.5%. The sites had been locations of overland flow research (Pratt & Henderson (1981)),and the catchment as a whole had been previously studied to determine general sediment washoff (Pratt & Adams (1981)) and stormwater discharge quality (Fletcher et al. (1978); Fletcher & Pratt (1981)). 2 Research Programme 2.1 Systematic sampling: liquor The research has built up a data set of results of 26 water quality variables, including 12 heavy metals (Table 1) from weekly sampling, undertaken in three periods between May '84 and April 1985. Liquor samples were collected from twelve gully pots, four from each of the three sub-catchments. The gullies were all located at the closed end of each cul-de-sac with two on either side of the highway. The sampling programme was conducted over a twelve week period during the Table 1 Parameters analysed in the gully liqour programme Water Quality Parameters Heavy Metals (mg/l) Temperature ('C) Sodium (Na) Dissolved oxygen (mg/l) Potassium (K) PH (pH unit) Iron (Fe) BOD5 (mg/l as BOD) Lead (pb) COD (mg/l as COD) Calcium (ca) Conductivity (microsiemen/cm) Magnesium (Mg) Suspended solids (mg/l) Zinc (zn) Alkalinity (mg/l as CaC03) Manganese (Mn Total hardness (mg/l as CaC03) Copper (cu 1 Phosphate (mg/l as P) Cadmium (Cd) Sulphate (mg/l as SO4) Nickel (Ni Chloride (mg/l as Cl) Chromium (Cr 1 Nitrate (mg/l as N) Ammonia (mall as N) summer 1984 and over two further five week periods during winter 1984/85.

Received: 17 April 2011; in revised form: 27 May 2011 / Accepted: 28 May 2011 / Published: 14 June 2011 Abstract: This paper provides data from two years of monitoring of the chemical quality of rivers and streams in North West England from the clean headwaters to polluted rivers just above the tidal reach and covers 26 sites including the Ribble, Wyre and the tributary rivers of the Calder and Douglas. Across the basins that include areas of rural, urban and industrial typologies, data is presented for three of the priority substances in the Water Framework Directive i.e., nickel (Ni), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb). Average concentrations are low and well below the Environmental Quality Standards values for all three of these substances. Cadmium and Pb appear in approximately equal proportions in the dissolved (<0.45 µm) and in the acid available particulate fractions (>0.45 µm) whilst Ni occurs predominantly in the dissolved form (92%).
